Annual General Meeting
Te Āwhina Marae - April 3rd - 5th
The 22nd AGM of the Ngāti Rārua Ātiawa Iwi Trust will be held on Saturday 4 April 2015 from 9.00am at Te Āwhina Marae as part of Ohu Maatu 2015. We warmly encourage all whānau to attend.
Three Ngāti Rārua Trustee vacancies exist. R. Taylor and J. Banks will retire by rotation. Both being eligible, they offer themselves for re-election for a further three year term.
With the passing of J Morgan, an election is required to fill the Trustee vacancy for the balance of the term, being one year.
Nominations must clearly stipulate which seats are being sought by the nominee. You may be nominated for more than one vacancy. Nomination forms and Section 16 (2) of the Charities Act 2005 declaration forms are available from the office, Level 2, Wakatu House, Montgomery Square, Nelson, phone 03 548 08770. Nominations close 4.00pm Thursday 26 March 2015.
